Green was scoreless (0-1 FG) in 14 minutes and chipped in one rebound and one assist Friday in the Clippers' 128-121 win over the Bulls.

With Danilo Gallinari (ankle) back from a one-game absence, Green returned to his normal bench role and saw his minutes fall precipitously. Since coming over in a Feb. 7 trade with Memphis, Green is averaging 7.4 points, 6.9 boards and 1.1 triples in 19.6 minutes per game, production that only makes him an interesting commodity in deeper fantasy leagues.

Green moved into the starting lineup Tuesday, replacing Danilo Gallinari (rest) who was sitting out. Green played a team-high 32 minutes in the loss, falling just one point short of a double-double. He has been solid since joining the Clippers but is not really a viable asset in standard formats. He will likely slide back to the bench for Friday's game against the Bulls and remains more of a rebounds streamer.

Green will draw the spot start at power forward for Tuesday's game versus the Trail Blazers according to the Clippers' pregame broadcast.

The start will be Green's first since joining the Clippers prior to the trade deadline. He will be replacing Danilo Gallinari (rest) with the starters. In 12 games with the club he is averaging 7.9 points and 7.1 rebounds across 19.0 minutes.

Green collected 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt), eight rebounds and three steals across 17 minutes in the Clippers' 121-112 win over the Mavericks on Monday.

Green was efficient off the bench for the second straight game, following a 13-point, nine-rebound effort versus the Nuggets on Sunday across 22 minutes. The 28-year-old has proven capable of offering solid scoring and rebounding production during past campaigns with the Grizzlies, and he now seems to be carving out a modest but consistent niche in the Clippers' frontcourt rotation. While his second-unit role will inevitably lead to some fluctuation in his production, Green is an intriguing add in deeper formats and has viability as a DFS punt play.

Green had two points (1-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and four rebounds in 15 minutes during Saturday's 123-112 win over the Celtics.

Green had missed the last two games with the Grizzlies due to knee soreness prior to this his Clippers debut. Nevertheless, Green went from a team that regularly paired two traditional big men together to one that almost never does, and he's unlikely to maintain his average of 21.8 minutes per game through 42 appearances with Memphis this season.
